www.drunkdriveranswers.com. The Ignition Interlock Device is given to those who have violated the rules of driving while under the influence. Each state is different, issuing verdicts according to the laws of that area. The Interlock Device is becoming common and can be helpful in avoiding further DUI charges as well as saving a life. The device can be rented even if there is no DUI charge but someone may want to have one installed just to be safe he knows that drinking and driving is an often occurrence.

Truck drivers would be exempt and ordinary speed would be posted for them subject to original DUI limit
Could thid be a good capaign platform for states simalar to Nevada
Driving under the influence should not be a crime in the first place.
It is a “pre-crime”. Drinking should not be an excuse. It is really impossible to adequately judge how the alcohol content will effect one person to the next as people behave differently and some would not be capable driving under a lower limit and others fine until a higher point.
Causing an accident drunk or not is a crime. Alcohol content in blood would be evidence towards the state of the driver but that is all.
Really pre-crimes are ineffective and stupid. It’s just irrational fear of what might happen.

How often does it go off? Is it really 3 minutes? i hear its more like 10 or 15 or can be set to as mush as 30?

Yeah. It is definitely inconvenient at times but there is not much that can be done about it. When I am running small errands its a bit annoying having to blow after three minutes in a place.
I’m not positive on the jump or new battery. I haven’t had an issue like that yet but I’m thinking it shouldn’t be a problem.

But suppose you need to have service on the vechile(oil change, a repair, tires etc) the shop can’t move it right? so what u gotta tell em to push it around their shop?
And in the case of a jump start or a new battery, doen’t that scew up the whole system and then you end up getting violated?

The car can be repaired just like normal. When the device was being installed I never once saw the guy go under the hood of the car. He spent all of his time under the stirring wheel. He removed the panel and started wiring the interlock device under there. I think the device is attached to certain fuses.

Hey what is someone supposed to do if they have to have work done on the car or need a jumpstart or a new battery?

No the car won’t shut off but in about ten minutes after the car has been started the interlock device will make a loud beeping noise indicating that you should blow again…same as when you first started.

so in ten minutes the car will shut off even if you are driving?

I don’t remember. I think about $275, which included installation fee and monthly fee. There is an ongoing monthly fee throughout the entire time that the courts say it is required in the car, which costs about $105. The monthly fee is half of that cost if a person wants one installed just to be safe.

how much did that cost
